I don't subscribe to conspiracy theories, just throwing this out there for conspiracy theorists to discuss :) Stock market hitting new highs is a big confidence booster....

Were you confident, economically speaking, when SPX hit all time highs ? - No, you were bearish like hell. So it depends on who you ask that question to. Permabears will be more angry and will turn more bearish.

I'm a trader in the market. Doesn't matter what I do. I'm talking about general public with their 401ks and pension plans, Corporate execs that make spending decisions, and so on.....

This headline sure will build confidence. Kind of shows the lies of the DOW at a record.

Dow matches very well the ratio of ceo to avg. worker pay..gg market is all about the biggies..and companies keeping more and the market extracting concessions with every turn and story (since the ATC strike when a lot of them got fired)
